CAPY. EDWARD A. SALISBURY. . Ducks and Large Fowl Ducks such as mallard, canvashack and redhead should be baked. If you once learn how to bake in a Dutch oven you have found the secret of sucecessful camp cookery. Take a mailard, for instance. Rub it with salt and pepper (I might add here, pick "em &y and keep ‘em dry —no water mear 4 duck!), then put an onfon well up in the body cavity. Fill the remaining space with celery, wild or. domestic. Get your oven, or Dutch oven, very hot before the duck goes in. Use no grease and no water—Jjust your dry pan or oven. A big mallard will eook perfectly in twenty minutes. Do not open oven or take lid from Dutch oven ufter starling to cook. Serve! with currant jelly. Goose.—There is only one way for a man, or any one else, to cook a goose. Listen: Never pick a goose! Just pull the skin right off; every inch of it. Then take a sharp Knife and follow down the breas: bone on! both sides. Strip the breast meat clear away from both sides. Split each side of the breast into two thin steaks (if lurge goose). Dip these steaks in beaten egg. salt and peppe: 1l in flour and frv over a med fire. That's new to most folks for goose. and it's going to give you a new idea about geese when you try it. Teal, Partridgs and Smail Fowl— Pick, without breaking the skin. Cut open the back and break out flat for zrilling_or broil: 3roil bone side to the firc for eighl minutes. Souse frequentiy with meited butter. Turn snd broil. flesh side to the fire. for four minutes, uslng more butter, Salt and pepper thoroughly at time of turning. ve with currant Jjelly. (Coprright. 1922.) Your Home and You BY HELEN KENDALL. Making the Oven Earn Its Keep. i The weeck end guest sat on the high {kitchen stool, swinging her French- ! heeled feet and watching her hostess bend before an oven whose three shelves were liierally filled with goodie: “3y. but you make that oven work overlime!” ejaculated the guest, peer- ting forward interestedly. never put but one thing at a time in my oven, or two at the outside.” The hostess sat back on Ler heels and looked up at her friend. “Well, why not make it earn she inquired blithely. “I have ceep? to hav ot least half-tilt, for two solid hours to bake this steamed brown bread |1t steams two hours and then bakes {two hours, You know. Why should 1 ihave empty spaces in the oven and ihave the gas burners on top of the {stove going. too? ! “As the darky said, ‘When 1 ibakes, T bakes' 1 put my big sweet {potatoes in the bottom to bake for dinner, bake a pudding for dessert, pop p pan of biscuits in (for the browh bread is better cold than hot). and so get my vegetables, bread and dessert all cooked with the same heat.” 3 “But things don't all take the same degree of heat.” objected the visitor. “While you are baking your biscuit doesn’t your bread burn?" “Not if you manage things right,” was the answer. “As you know, you put things below to make them rise 1 i ! l its | e the gas going full tilt, or| | i { SPECIALLY in the cities, and] more especially in the big apartment buildings contain- ing many very tiny apart-| ments at very fabulous prices, the dining room. as a separate and dis- tinct room with a set purpose and | reavon for being., has been shoved | unceremcniouely into the background | or given up completely, and the fam- ily either utilizes an adaptable gate- ieg table in the living room or takes | its meals elsewhere. 1 suppose in this day of high rents and limited space there are those who are forced to_give up the luxury of supporting a dining room, as it were, but to my mind it is a great pity. Even if the| family consists of only two, it does' #eem as if those two 8hould enjoy at ! least two meals a day together in | the leisure and quiet and privacy of | their own home, and while a fully | equipped dining room is not abso- lutely necessary to produce these cle- ments. it certainly aids materially. There is a dignity, a charm and a hospitality about a well furnished. spotlesaly clean, cheerful dining room that must have'its effect not only on the spirits and temper of members of the family, but on their development as well. it is here really that the children learn the rudiments of good breeding in table manncrs, in un- selfishness and thoughtfulness of oth ers and all those little but big things that go to make up the gracious amenities of life. Not only tha:, in the intercourse of the table they learn to express themselves and in entertaining guests they learn the self-control and self-possession born of the knowledge of the right thing to do fn the right place, such tre- mendous assets all through life. One does not need to be wealthy to have these intangible influences in home, but one must have ideals and much’ determination. As everything in life has its rela- tive value. as the dining room may be very grand, indeed. and it may b the extreme opposite of simplicity #nd yet the same spirit of sincerity and a friendly hospitality may brood over both. Since this room in the house | is the place In which to serve the meals attractively and conveniently and to eat in comfort and enjoyment it would seem that the things which do not contribute to this purpose do not really belong there. A table and chairs, of course, there must be. A buffet ‘or a chest of some kind for the linen and silver certainly has it rightful place. as has also the serv- ing table. These pieces actually add to the convenience and ease with which a meal may be served. Whers pantry space is limited a china closet may be a necessity, but too often; | these glass cabinets are used only for the display of one’s choicest bits iof glass and china, a weakness which {might be forgiven and overlooked, but which at best is not especlally good taste. The charming corner i cupboards found in the early Ameri- can homes were used to keep in safety the cholcest possessions of the housewife, but their fine old pieces of handmade porcelain. pewter and sil- ver added a decorative note to their spacious dining rooms that crowded shelves of cut glass and china do {not possess. These are more apt to give the effect of a display counter for a part of the pantry brought into the dining room. This does not mean that the din- 1 but_rather that they should be used | With restraint and that the pieces used on the buffet and in the cup- iboard, if one has one. should be gen- uine and have a real decorative val- ue. 1t can readily be seen that a side- hoard covered with silver, no mat- ter how elegant and beautiful each plece may be, presents a massed ap- pearance that destroys the individ- uality of the separate pieces. It seems that after spotless cleanli- ness one of the first requisite of a dining room is some sense of space. It should not be overcrowded. If the room fis small, do not try to crowd a whole suite of massive din- ing room furniture in it just because the furniture happens to be sold in suites and you like massive furni- l The Home With a Personality XIX—The Dining Room.

For it came iuto being a couple of years ago and has not yet waned. To be sur., we don’t use as much fringe on our frocks as we did then, but we use fring= in a dozen different wayvs. For one thing, we use leather cut into fringe for trimming hats. Fringed handkerchiets are in vogu.. Narrow cotton fringe stitched around the edge of colored linen handkerchicts. There are some new woven friuged scarfs, a thin sort of wool homespun fabric, with the fringe formed of cu’ ends of the scarf, not the thresds raveled out. There are fringed tassels of jer and j pearl bead: on shoes, and fringes of the same materials from the edge of tall colonia! pump buckles. long fronds or with silk worn, pushed well mbove the elbow where their myriad ends dangle charn. ingly. Fringed girdles of all sorts are vogue. There sre long fringed or: ments—the fringe reaching to t o tom of the skirt. sometimes below it {1hat are fastened on the hips at it { girdle line, as a girdie finish, 1o dang.- down the skirt 1o its hem. There are girdle ni.s'nents of r.pbon arranged with long erds, fringewise. Thess and other accessories of clothes make it clear that we are not vet through with our fashion for fring. i ! and keep it intact and use it to foster |a fine spirit and a true hospitality in | your family.

But there are any number of things that can be baked simultaneously without harm. Baked apples and a jcasserole of lamb, potatoes and scal- loped tomatoes, can all be placed in together. I never have any waste space in my oven if I can help i Week at a Time. There Is almost always economy and ‘convenience in planning in a general way the meals of Your family for an entire week at a time. Some housewives make this a bit of their Sunday recreation. glancing through 2 cook book as thev do so for sug- gestions. It is especially useful to plan the meals’ you meed for a week in advance. In this way you may be sure to give yourself the variety needed. 1t you plan for a week you need never have beef or lamb or any sort of pork two days in succession, If you have planned to have boiled ham on Monday, plan to keep it for fur- ther use until Wednesday. On Tues- day you may wish lamb stew and this may be used again Thursday as a lamb ple. Friday you may wish fish. Saturday you may have beefsteak and on Sunday roast or fricassee chicken. Planning this ahead of time you can see to it that there is variety and economy. If you leave it until the last minute you may not take these things into consideration. You may object that you can never tell what sort of weather you are go- ing to have a week in advance and that you plan according to tempera- ture. Algo you may make the ex- cuse that you never know just what your engagements are golng to be— ‘when company® will come or when you will want a hurry-up dinner, that can be got at the .last minute. Perhaps this s true in your case. However, most housewives of experi- ence have found that it is best to thake company plans at least a week _fahead of time. Every. housewife should Keep some sort of engagement calen- dar and she should consuit this be- fore she sits down'to make the food plans for the coming week. ° As far as the weather goes. vour schedule should always be made so that you can make modifications at the last minute if the weather de- mands it. For Instance, if warm ‘weather comes when ‘you planned to Bave an oven roast, make your selec- tion of & jellied loaf of meat that may be served cold, at the windows against a warm plain paper and see how utterly livable |and Tovable the effect will be. i Where the room is larger and more | formal, the more elaborate furniture ils the proper thing to use. The walls may be panelled and hung with softly colored rich hand-woven tapestries. | The draperles may be fine velours or heavy silks, but always there should |be a feeling of quiet simplicity and a lack of overcrowding. - { Another important consideration is i the lighting. Along with many other {things that have been tried and dis- icarded, the huge glass domes that i hung over the center of every well- ! appointed table a few years ago, have had their day and are being rele- gated to the scrap heap slowly but surely. The center light still remains lin many cases, and probably will juntil wiring and connections have reached a higher state of perfection. but it is improving from an artistic {standpoint all the time. The silk shade, while often abused. has soft- ened many a glaring light and added a touch of interesting color. The many really lovely wall lights which are now on the market make the choosing of lighting fixtures a fasci- nating pastime and add distinction to any room when carefully placed. Real candle light has had quite a vogue for the dinner table, but it seems to be just a trifle dim unless supplemented by & good supply of wall lights and good old electricity. Therefore study your dining room — e Veal and Ham Pie. Trim some veal and ham into scal- lops and season with pepper and sait to taste. Next chop fine a few canned mushrooms and some parsley and put them Into small saucepan with & lit- tle butter and one shallot also chop- ped fined. Fry these lightly over the fire. Then add nearly one pint of good stock. Simmer the whole for five minutes and pour It into the ple. Place in the cavities six yolks of eggs boiled hard. Cover with pufl paste, bake the ple for one and one- talf hours and serve hot or cold. —_— . - Sardine Rarebit. Take six sardines that have been brotled, skinned, boned and mashed. Into 2 pan put ome cupful each of cream and cheese broken into bifs. Melt together and add one table- spoontul of butter, a little salt, a lit- tle paprika and half a teaspoonful of tobasco sauce or a teaspoonful of mustard. Bring the mixture to tie boiling point, add the sardines and two beaten eggs, and, When boiling again, gerve on &lices of toast or hot toasted crackers. | 35c Danderine Saves Hair Don’t lose another hair!
